2012 was a fantasy year for Advanced Sports Logic. With your help and support, we made significant improvements to The Machine and added Trade Judge as a new product. More importantly, you told us that our products were useful. The percentage of you that won your leagues rose significantly and logins more than tripled. It makes us proud to be a part of your success.

Starting in 2013, The Machine is available 12 months a year to support keeper and dynasty leagues. We listened to your feedback and have greatly improved many of the most important features.

We believe that our own experiences using The Machine this year reflects that of the majority of our customers. The team at Advanced Sports Logic used The Machine to play in more than a 75 leagues including two of the highest caliber expert leagues in the Fantasy Sports Industry:

Our Founder, Leonard, had his best year ever using The Machine in nine leagues. His leagues varied from deep individual defensive player leagues, various scoring rules, two keeper leagues, one dynasty league, and one draft master’s league. Of the eight leagues that included playoffs, five of his teams went to the playoffs and two won championships. His ninth was a fantasy-point-only league, where he came in second place by only 20 fantasy points.

Our VP of Strategic Partnerships, Rick, won the FSTA Expert’s Main Event Championship.

Our Product Specialist, Rob, didn’t win the championship of a 32-team All-Pro Expert’s league, but he did obliterate the competition in the regular season.

Our Application Consultant, Josh, used The Machine for 55 dynasty leagues, and had great success. Thirty of his teams went to the playoffs and eight won championships. (Watch for Josh’s follow-up story coming soon.)

So, a big thank you from all of us at Advanced Sports Logic to all of our customers for your patronage, encouragement, suggestions and patience assisting us in getting one step closer to perfection.

We want to thank our partners at CBS Sports, MyFantasyLeague, and RealTime Fantasy Sports. Their dedication to helping us deliver a better experience for you does not go unnoticed.

We also thank AccuScore, FantasySharks, Dave Richard, Jamey Eisenberg for allowing us to use their player projections to enable many features and strengthen the decisions that are recommended.

We know we can do better, but not without your continued support. In 2013, we will strive to make The Machine and Trade Judge easier to use, faster, better at generating recommendations, and more reliable.
